He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 1070

"Yardley, I heard about your father's passing."

"The dead are gone, but the living must carry on. My condolences."

Quentin spoke with a dismissive, airy tone, as if he were discussing a minor inconvenience rather than a death in the family.

Yardley instinctively clenched his fists. Looking at the man he was supposed to call his father-in-law, he felt nothing but a boiling, suffocating rage.

His father's sudden death was a direct consequence of the press conference orchestrated by Veronica. If she hadn't relentlessly aired out the family's dirty laundry, his father wouldn't have been pushed into a fatal heart attack.

There was no way Quentin didn't know the exact details, yet his face showed absolutely zero guilt or remorse.

Yardley finally understood the terrifying depths of the Thorne family's cold-blooded sociopathy.

A bitter, mocking sneer crept onto Yardley's lips. "You know exactly why my father died, better than anyone."

"Why are you here? Skip the bullshit and say what you came to say."

Hearing Yardley's tone, Quentin narrowed his eyes, a flicker of pure greed flashing across his face.

"The Flynn Group is rotting from the inside out. Your foundations are destroyed. There is zero chance of a comeback."

"Under these circumstances, I obviously cannot allow my daughter to remain tied to your sinking ship. We need to terminate your marriage to Veronica immediately, and settle the Flynn Group's equity."
